It's been a while...

so I guess it's update time!

• I'm home for the summer. I just finished my second year at the University of Oregon and am (hopefully) halfway through my college career. I am also done with the SOJC premajor requirements and will be a full major beginning fall term.
• I managed to borrow a euphonium from the School of Music so I can learn how to play it before fall. So far it's going better than I would have expected, but Separate Ways still sounds like someone with an upset stomach.
• It's really cold in here...
• I miss a ton of people in Eugene.
• I also missed a ton of people here in Newberg while I was in Eugene.
• I made dinner tonight. It actually turned out quite well. It's amazing what working appliances and counter space can do for cooking skills.
• Baby Bear makes cute music when he dances on my keyboard. It scares him though. Which is even cuter.
• I can't wait until football season...pickup games, being in Eugene again, marching band, the antics of the Insane-O's...hopefully not having to bail any of them out of jail...
• I want to collect more Oregon stuff. Not as much as Cameron has...that's probably overdoing it a bit...but definitely more.
• I have too many collections.
• I should work on my photography.
• I really need to learn to drive. Seriously. This is pathetic.
• Bear reminds me of Woodstock the bird from the Charlie Brown cartoons when he whines.
• It felt like it was late when it was 8 p.m. Now it's almost 10:20 and feels early.
